Cayce's Intestinal Antiseptic - for 'rheumatism', etc
Hi Friends,
Last month I came across a statement that said doctors knew, circa 1900, that cases of rheumatism - "conditions causing chronic, often intermittent pain affecting the joints or connective tissue" - were often caused by microorganisms in the intestines, and that "intestinal antiseptics" could help with these conditions.
Someone dropped a link to the ARE's page about Glyco Thymoline: https://www.edgarcayce.org/the-readings/health-and-wellness/holistic-health-database/therapies-glyco-thymoline/
I'd heard about Glyco as a mouthwash before, and read about using this internally, but I finally got it: Glyco-Thymoline (originally formulated in 1894) has potent anti-microbial properties, and can be taken internally, a couple drops at a time.
Aspirin and other salicylates have anti-microbial properties. Aspirin (acetyl-salicylic acid) is a synthetic chemically-modified version of a salicylate originally extracted from willow bark. The Salicylates used in Glyco-Thymoline don't get absorbed in the intestines, and exert their antiseptic properties along the whole length of the intestines.
Searching for "intestinal antispetic" brought up this old medical letter:
1899 - https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5270078/pdf/hosplond71255-0007a.pdf
Searching for "intestinal antiseptic rheumatism" found this semi-recent article:
2013 - Intestinal bacteria linked to rheumatoid arthritis:
Researchers have linked a species of intestinal bacteria known as Prevotella copri to the onset of rheumatoid arthritis, the first demonstration in humans that the chronic inflammatory joint disease may be mediated in part by specific intestinal bacteria.
There are two versions of the product on Glyco-Thymoline.net. The only difference is the newer version doesn't have Carmine on the ingredient list.
I ordered a single bottle from Amazon to try out, then I ordered 12 bottles directly from Kress & Owen Co. These were shipped promptly.
The ingredients on the Heritage Store's version, called Alka-Thyme, seem to be pretty similar to Glyco-Thymoline. The ARE's "Official Supplier" also has a version that is probably acceptable too. But one of you referred to these as 'knock off' versions, and said the original Glyco Thymoline is much better on their sunburns than the imitation versions.
The Original Glyco-Thymoline formula is still being produced and sold, by the same family-owned company as produced this when Cayce was giving the readings, so I'm going to keep buying the original version.
The only difference between Kress & Owen Co's Original Glyco-Thymoline and their 'Clear Menthol' version is the removal of Carmine, a red pigment that is derived from insects. While this pigment is very stable, it does sometimes trigger an allergic response. The owner responded to my email and said they may be switching the carmine "to an all natural vegetable color".
You can get a bottle of Clear menthol mint Glyco Thymoline from me. I include a 2-ounce dropper bottle and a 4mL pipet, for easy mixing and dispensing: https://radialappliance.teslabox.com/product/clear-glyco-thymoline/ (or at my facebook store).
Acupuncturists can tell a lot about a person based on tongue diagnosis. Having a white tongue might indicate that a person has too much bacteria in their small intestine (SIBO: small intestine bacterial overgrowth), and would probably benefit from some sort of intervention: probiotics, prebiotics (Jerusalem Artichokes, etc), Cayce's Raw Apple Cleanse, an intestinal antiseptic (such as Glyco), etc.
